Monkey Race

For other uses, see Monkey Race (disambiguation).

Monkey Race is a Party Game in each of the games of the Super Monkey Ball series except Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball Jr., and Super Monkey Ball: Banana Splitz. In Super Monkey Ball 2 it was called Monkey Race 2. In it, the Monkeys race around the course, in their traditional Monkey balls, and use items and boost pads to go faster and sabotage their opponents.

Wiggling the control stick on your controller if you get hit by an enemy item to recover from "paralyzed" status is a feature only present in Monkey Race 2.

In Monkey Race from Super Monkey Ball, Blue COM2 and Green COM4 are faster than Yellow COM3.

Items Edit

Super Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball 2, and Super Monkey Ball DeluxeEdit

Speed Star: Increases the user's speed for a limited time. In Time Attack mode, players always start with three of this item.
Banana Peel: Causes a monkey to slip around once rolled over.
Polygon Ball: Turns the monkey ball into a dodecahedron that causes those who are affected to bounce off the ground gradually. It does not slow them down, however.
Bowling Bomber: Blows up the monkey ahead of the player.
Big Ball: Causes the user to grow large for a limited time. It also protects the monkey from incoming attacks and can even deflect them back towards the shooter, except for the Hunter Missile. It also does not protect the monkey from banana peels they run over.
Ice Cube: Turns the Monkey Ball into an ice cube that causes the monkey to spin around constantly and lose speed.
Gravity Bomb: Makes the Monkey Ball too heavy to go up slopes and lose any speed boosts it gets.
Hunter Missile: A barrage of missiles is fired, with one missile going to the Monkeys ahead of the thrower.
